Chapter 234

In this session of the Dao Questioning Grand Ceremony, the Dao Sword Sect took in 16 inner sect and personally taught disciples. And before taking in these 16 inner sect and personally taught disciples, they had already taken in 165 outer sect and menial disciples.

Of these 175 outer sect and menial disciples, 3 had been promoted to inner sect disciples over the past 3 years.

Then, in the 47 years before this session of the Dao Questioning Grand Ceremony, they had taken in 27 inner sect and personally taught disciples, and 306 outer sect and menial disciples, bit by bit over time.

Of those 306 outer sect and menial disciples, 7 had joined the ranks of inner sect disciples.

In summary, in the past 50 years, the Dao Sword Sect had taken in a total of 524 disciples. Of them, there were 53 inner sect and personally taught disciples, and 471 outer sect and menial disciples.

However, the path of cultivating the Dao is not smooth sailing. The dangers and tribulations along the way are unpredictable. In those 50 years, a few dozen had fallen, and a few had left to join other sects.

And so, at this time of knocking on the Dao's door, a total of 494 disciples had gathered in the Dao Questioning Hall. Of them, there were 49 inner sect and personally taught disciples, and 445 outer sect and menial disciples.

The disciples of each peak had gathered in their own places. Adding the Chiefs and Elders, there were probably 600-700 people in the hall. For a time, it was noisy and chaotic, the sounds difficult to settle.

And among the Dao Sword Sect's 4 peaks, Dan Peak had the fewest people, but was the most eye-catching.

Because with one look towards Dan Peak's location, what could be seen was an impressive white tiger, mighty and domineering. The other peaks may have had more people, but where else could one find such a white tiger?

At the front middle chief position of Dan Peak was Qin Ran. On either side of him sat Long Qiqi and Li Shiyin. And then the three of them still could not compare to Chasing the Wind behind them.

It was no wonder that people saw not people but only the tiger.

Fortunately, the Dao Sword Sect disciples all knew that Li Shiyin, the white-clothed sword immortal, had a white tiger named Chasing the Wind. So although there was such a ferocious white tiger in the hall, it did not cause panic.

Not only did it not cause panic, it attracted quite a lot of attention. A white tiger like Chasing the Wind, so beautiful and mighty sitting there, it was hard for people not to look at him... he was even more captivating than the white-clothed sword immortal.

Qin Ran really disliked being the center of attention like this, especially because he had to secretly observe Jian Yuanjie and the others. With everyone looking over here, it was hard for him to watch unnoticed.

Li Shiyin also took out her identity token to check her number. She laughed to Qin Ran, "Hehe, Master, my number is..."

But before she could finish speaking, her mouth was covered by a hand.

She looked and saw Long Qiqi sprawled over Qin Ran's lap, one hand covering Li Shiyin's mouth.

"Are you stupid?" Long Qiqi glared at her and scolded.

"What is it?" Li Shiyin still didn't understand.

"What if your opponent knows your number and makes preparations ahead of time. What would you do then?" Long Qiqi asked.

Li Shiyin was puzzled. "I spar with people every day, everyone knows what I'm good at. The counter-strategies, those who know already know. What else is there?"

"What if they find a way to mess up your condition before you go on stage? Or directly prevent you from going on stage altogether?" Long Qiqi rolled her eyes and cursed in exasperation, "So stupid!"

Only now did Li Shiyin come to a realization, but she still felt it somewhat incredulous. She looked at Qin Ran uncertainly, "Master?"

Qin Ran showed Li Shiyin his identity token, which had the word "Judge" written on it. He smiled, "I'm a judge, I can't play favorites."

He wanted to see the progress his silly disciple had made over the years. He had no plans to directly help her this time.

"Humph! Stinking Master!" Li Shiyin pouted.

Looking at Li Shiyin's increasingly beautiful face, Qin Ran still felt somewhat uneasy. Although he had emphasized it many times before, he reiterated, "Remember, safety first, assessment second. Rankings, rewards etc are all secondary. You must not get injured, much less lose your life."

"With me being so powerful, and Seven Seven as strategist, we'll definitely clinch first place." Li Shiyin declared.

Knowing his silly disciple was deliberately trying to provoke him, Qin Ran ignored her and looked to Long Qiqi instead, feeling even more uneasy. He stressed again, "Pay attention to safety!"

At this time, the Sect Leader in the hall suddenly became spirited. He announced in a loud voice, "The preparations are complete. All stewards, elders and chiefs get ready. The knocking on the Dao's door officially begins now!"
